us accepted in the Beloved.

abroad over the face of all the earth.

Faith
• Heb 11:13-16
• These all died in faith, not having received the promises,
but having seen them afar off were assured of them,
embraced them and confessed that they were strangers
and pilgrims on the earth. 14 For those who say such
things declare plainly that they seek a homeland. 15 And
truly if they had called to mind that country from which
they had come out, they would have had opportunity to
return. 16 But now they desire a better, that is, a
heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be
called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
